The presence of a live and relativlely large fetus outside the confines of the uterine cavity is almost certainly, a sign of an abdominal ectopic pregnancy. The history of a left adnexal mass, which in all probability was a tubal ectopic pregnancy which subsequently ruptured resulting in left abdominal ectopic pregnancy. There was no evidence of myometrial tissue between the pregnancy sac and fetus and the urinaryĢ. At 16 weeks old, live fetus with posterior placenta was seen outside the uterine cavity. The following points helped arrive at a diagnosis of the left pelvic, abdominal ectopic pregnancy:ġ. On the second ultrasound examination, a 16 weeks oldįetus was visualized outside the uterine cavity in the left hemi-pelvis. The patient wished to have a second opinion after a few weeks. The patient opted not to undergo any surgical treatment and was put on tocolytics.
This lady underwent ultrasound imaging during early pregnancy, which showed absence of an intrauterine pregnancy, but showed a left adnexal mass lesion ( left tubal ectopic pregnancy). The double decidual sac sign is so named because of the sonographic appearance of 2 concentric rings around the gestation sac this is a normal (FL= fluid in endometrial cavity SAC= GESTATION SAC). The decidua capsularis and decidua parietalis join or attached at the decidua basalis. The decidua parietalis lines the uterine cavity whilst the decidua capsularis encases the gesation sac. The decidua capsularis is separated from the decidua parietalis by a small amount of fluid within the endometrialĬavity. The double decidual sign consists of the decidua parietalis surrounding theĭecidua capsularis with the gestation sac encased within the Decidua capsularis. This sign helps differentiate a normal intrauterine pregnancy in its early stages from the pseudosac of ectopic pregnancy. The double decidual sac sign is clearly present, showing a normal early intrauterine pregnancy. These ultrasound images show the sagittal section of the uterus in a 4 week, 6 days old pregnancy. These ultrasound images of LSCS scar pregnancy are courtesy of Dr. The potential for severe hemorrhage from such ectopic pregnancies is very high due to the potential for rupture of the myometrial tissue around the sac. Of the LSCS scar to the endometrial cavity. Scar pregnancies are extremely rare (less than 1% of all pregnancies) and are believed to result from a canalization These images suggest a LSCS scar pregnancy (caesarean scar pregnancy). Color Doppler images of the uterus show increased flow (hyperemia) around the sac. Segment of the uterus within the myometrium of the anterior wall of uterus. Ultrasound images of the uterus show a sac like structure in the lower She also has a history of previous caesarean section (LSCS).

If you have any questions about this, please feel free to talk to your sonographer or doctor about this. If you have more than one ultrasound during your pregnancy, giving you ‘multiple dates’, then the earliest ultrasound in which your baby was seen should be used, because it will be more accurate. These scans are only used to estimate the due date of your baby if this is all you have to go on. Even average babies can differ by up to 2 to 3 “weeks of growth”. Ultrasounds performed after 22 weeks gestation are much less reliable in estimating the due date of the baby because the size no longer reflects the gestational age very well. Ultrasound examinations more than 12 weeks and less than 22 weeks are regarded as being within 10 days of accuracy (or up to 10 days earlier or 10 days later than the woman’s calculated due date).
